Abstract

In the joint construction of cobalt-based alloy, a cobalt-based alloy layer 1 , in which granular or massive eutectic carbide 2 disperses, is joined to a metal of a base metal 37 via an insert metal layer 36 . For the joint construction of cobalt-based alloy, liquid phase diffusion bonding is performed at a temperature of 1100° C. for a retention time of 1 hour with an insert metal with a thickness of about 40 μm being interposed between the base metal, which is S45C carbon steel, and a cobalt-based alloy material which has granular or massive eutectic carbide with a grain size not larger than 30 μm in a matrix of cast structure and contains 1.03 wt % C, 29.73 wt % Cr, 3.86 wt % W, 2.59 wt % Ni, 2.67 wt % Fe, 0.59 wt % Si, and 0.07 wt % Mo, the balance substantially being Co. The cobalt-based alloy layer 1 after bonding contains granular or massive eutectic carbide.
